Once the BandoRouter emits a ServiceRequested event, the corresponding fulfiller must listen for this event or transaction to fulfill the order.
After the order is fulfilled for the user off-chain, the fulfiller must interact with the BFP's manager contract to call registerFulfillmentResult. This call submits the result to an on-chain registry, changes the status of the request, and releases the funds in escrow to the beneficiary (the fulfiller's configured address).
As a conscious decision, we made the refund process authorizable by the fulfiller. This choice was made to avoid possible re-entrancies and to prevent potential DoS attacks and theft of funds. The process follows these steps:
The fulfiller fails to complete a request and decides to refund
The fulfiller (the only one with permissions) interacts with the Manager Contract to authorize a refund for the transaction
The funds in escrow are now marked as refundable to the user's address
The fulfiller calls the withdrawRefund function, and the funds are released to the target address
